296 O'Roarkes Road, Fernside, Waimakariri

The two acre lifestyle

Offers invited over $780,000

Established lifestyle/residential properties like this on little over two acres are not common in such a sought-after location, so close to Rangiora. The realistic owners have loved and enjoyed this family haven in the heart of Fernside but now want action. Now is your opportunity to make this your perfect a family home or retirement retreat.

Set back from the road on approximately 9652sqm of park-like grounds, privacy is assured.

A versatile kitchen and dining space flow through to the lounge and family rooms and out to modern patio areas with shade sails - the perfect place to entertain or just relax and enjoy the garden views.

North facing and bathed in sunlight, two air-conditioning heat pumps ensure year-round comfort with a log burner for added warmth and ambience.

The spacious master bedroom opens onto a private courtyard and includes an ensuite and walk in wardrobe. The living areas separate the master bedroom from the three bedrooms at the other end of the house - perfect for families.

A large internal access garage includes extra space for a workshop/sewing area.

A separate studio, complete with heat pump, is the perfect place for a craft room, teenage retreat or work-from-home office.

The mature landscaped gardens are a real feature of this property with established specimen trees, walnuts, fruit trees, woodland and native areas, lawns and shrubs. The in-ground trampoline, sand-pit and hidden paths (perfect for hide-and-seek) blend seamlessly into the gardens to create a playground for young and old alike.

Raised vegetable gardens, wood shed and utility sheds and a formed gravel driveway with plenty of parking and turning area complete the grounds.

Household water is provided via the council operated Fernside water scheme (trickle supply), with an on-site bore providing additional water for irrigation.

This property offers the whole family an easy lifestyle in a great location.
